Assume cos t = .45 and cos w = .89, both t and w are positive, and both t and w determine a terminal point in quadrant 4. which of the following statements best describes the relationships between t and w? a. it is not possible to tell from the given informationb. w> tc. t> w

As both and determine terminal points in the fourth quadrant, we know that both angles fall between and . We also know that for , and that is strictly increasing along this interval.

This means that the angle with the larger cosine value must be closer to having a measure of 360 degrees than the angle with the smaller cosine value, so .
